Update, Decided on some changes for 84 z28.build

Decided on two changes for body. First going with fiberglass front bumper, part listed as upgrade for 84 z28. I figure this will make for a smoother
appearance and do away with the need for used parts like an impact cushion specific for this model. Also going with fiberglass ss hood as stinger hood cowl just too high for look I want even though i wanted stinger.

Also decided on Holley carb 600 cfm electric choke, vacuum secondaries to go with Edelbrock performer intake on 1987 350 ci engine. Looking at some other small performance ignition enhancers.

Also interior is out, cleaned door panels, ordered new carpet, seats sent to upholsterer. I want to keep bolsters with the stripes, but gray center panels had some burns. Interior was somewhat unique to 1984 z28 it seems so trying to keep some originality. Ordered a little darker grey carpet, and did decide to go all tuxedo black for car, ground effects, and wheels. Maybe tint all glass.
